I've been thinking to myself
I've been hesitant to post this past month. There haven't been a multitude of things keeping me from doing so. There's just been one and I guess I don't know exactly how to deal with it ( Read more... ) -
SHINGLES! *jazz hands*
Late last week I started feeling a pain up my right side under my arm. Kind of a burning like if I gave myself razor burn from shaving only there was no visible markings indicating razor burn. Stumped, I let it go. Around that same time, I noticed a few red dots in one area of my back. Thinking they were just some acne, I also let it go. It wasn't ( Read more... ) -
Stuck in Standby
So nothing terribly new to report on the Japan side of the world. Paperwork is paperwork and as of today, things have already been delayed again ( Read more... ) -
Slow Goings
Things have been rather slow around here and there's really nothing new to report. I didn't want to bore you with our day to day goings on - video games in the day for me; dinner, anime and bed once Kevin comes home. We tried going geocaching a few weekends ago but my stomach acted up and we called it quits early on. The main reason we've been ( Read more... ) -
Flowchart of our Courtship

It contained our thoughts about certain ( Read more... ) -

"Otaku" is a Japanese term brought over to English that is used to describe someone with obsessive interests, particularly anime, manga, and video games. Hearing someone referred to as an otaku generally has a negative connotation ( Read more... ) -
Grandma DeGarmo
As some of you may know, my grandmother on my mother's side passed away last week. I guess it didn't really come out of nowhere - she'd gotten pneumonia and was in the hospital in September and was moved from an assisted living facility to a nursing home soon after. The week or so before she passed, my mother had mentioned that she wasn't doing ( Read more... ) -
Christmas Cards
It's that time of year and some of my friends on Livejournal are already going ahead with the Christmas/Holiday card exchange! I think this is a really cute and fun idea and I'm going to try my best to participate from all the way over here.
Here's how it goes:- Post your name and address in the comments section of this post. They will be screened ( Read more... )

I'm not dead yet!
Yes, I've already slapped myself on the wrist for not updating, well, at all in the past week or so. Honestly, not a lot has been going on. The weather's gotten a little cooler, the days are getting shorter and the leaves are past the pretty colors point and are all brown and gross. I've still been working at pottery, although it seems out of the ( Read more... )
